Small and medium-sized enterprises and start-ups are most severely affected by credit rationing. This paper investigates whether access to bank loans in the early stage of a start-up's lifecycle is a predictor of a firm's default in a time of economic crisis. We ground our analysis on a firm-level longitudinal data set of Italian new capital companies born from 2004 to 2006. Implementing a discrete-time proportional hazard model we study their likelihood of default up to 2014 after controlling for a consistent number of other firms, industry and innovation related characteristics. The main findings confirm that access to bank loans significantly enhances the resilience of Italian start-ups. By taking into consideration the sectoral degree of innovation where firms operate, we also find that bank financing still exerts a positive influence on firm survival in both less and more innovative industries. However, there is evidence of a stronger positive influence on of long-term debt on the survival of firms operating in low- and medium-low innovative industries.</p>","PeriodicalId":47546,"journal":{"name":"Manchester School","volume":"91 3","pages":"141-170"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/manc.12433","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50119505","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Disaggregated results reveal that the impact of education is highest among individuals who are located in the middle and top terciles of the income distribution with no effect of additional education in the lowest tercile.

That is, it studies whether or not the firm can still extend its monopoly power from the monopolist product market to the competing product market by bundling under vertical product quality differentiation. There is an intangible product (such as cloud storage, after sale service, etc.) in a bundled package with vertical quality differentiation. The model herein enables us to further analyze the effects of bundling on a competitor's profit, consumer surplus, and social welfare when the bundler is a high- or low-quality firm and is facing a single-product competitor. When the bundling product is a high quality product, bundling reinforces the monopolist's market power toward the monopoly good, which runs opposite from the traditional leverage effect. If bundling enhances (shortens) the quality difference in competing goods, then bundling increases (reduces) both the competitor's profit and social welfare, whereas it decreases (increases) consumer surplus. Contrary to traditional literature, we find that mixed bundling may not be superior to pure bundling and the price discrimination via mixed bundling by the multi-product firm may enhance the consumer surplus.</p>","PeriodicalId":47546,"journal":{"name":"Manchester School","volume":"90 6","pages":"668-688"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80667990","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
